Mappings of the description logic ALC into the binary relational data struc-ture

V.A. Reznichenko, I.S. Chystiakova

Abstract


The article discusses one of the key concepts of the Semantic Web data integration problem specifically the creation of methods of data manipulation. Based on GAV approach the description logic is chosen as global schema and it is considered as the data model. In this paper the mechanism of interaction between description logic ALC and relational data model is proposed. It is presented as mapping of the ALC syntax components into relational data model with the help of relational algebra.

Keywords


ALC; description logic; RDM; data model integration; binary relational data structure; semantic web
